  • Study of menthol sublimation kinetics to deliver essential oil for the disinfection of stone monuments

    Open AccessFilippo Edoardo Capasso, Lisa Vergelli et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Heritage2026

    The biodeterioration of stone substrates represents a major issue in cultural heritage conservation, as microbial colonization – driven by environmental factors and stone bioreceptivity – can induce irreversible surface and structural damage over time. Chemical biocides remain widely used, but their environmental and toxicological drawbacks have prompted the search for sustainable and eco-compatible alternatives. Within this context, Essential Oi…

  • Dino-Lite Micro-Photogrammetry

    Open AccessDaniela Porcu, Emma Vannini et al.ARTICLEHeritage2026

    Portable digital microscopy (PDM) has become standard equipment in archaeological and restoration campaigns. In recent years, several studies have proposed combining PDM and micro-photogrammetry for preliminary documentation and in situ three-dimensional (3D) digitization, testing its applicability on a variety of materials and artifacts, including stone, bone, mural paintings, and small jewelry. However, limited data is available on its use with…

  • Multi-analytical assessment of dry plate negative cleaning using non-invasive optical methods

    Open AccessIrene Lunghi, Barbara Cattaneo et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Heritage2026

    Cleaning has long been recognised as one of the most delicate operations in conservation, given its irreversible and potentially invasive nature. Despite its relevance to the conservation of photographic documents, the cleaning of mould-contaminated gelatine glass-plate negatives remains poorly documented. This study aims to assess the outcomes of cleaning treatments applied to mould-contaminated dry plate negatives using non-invasive and non-con…

  • Spectral Mapping Techniques for the Stratigraphic and Compositional Characterisation of a 16th-Century Painting

    Open AccessAlice Dal Fovo, Margherita Morello et al.ARTICLEHeritage2024References: 3

    Identifying a painting’s pigment palette is crucial for comprehending the author’s technique, as well as for evaluating the degradation of the materials. This paper investigates the stratigraphy and pigments distribution of a 16th-century painting from the Uffizi Galleries collection. Firstly, we obtained compositional information through the cross-sectional analysis of samples using scanning electron microscopy. Secondly, we performed elemental …

  • Botticelli-style tempera portrait on tile

    Open AccessAlice Dal Fovo, Lucrezia Sepiacci et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Heritage2023References: 1

    In this work, a tempera painting of uncertain attribution from the Uffizi Galleries was studied. The painting, which portraits a man with apparently Botticellian features, was probably created by one of the most skilled forgers of the early 20th century, Umberto Giunti. He used a flat tile as a support, covered with preparatory layers emulating a wall painting. To shed light on the authorship of the painting, it was crucial to investigate its com…
